Wow. Everything about this game feels so polished and the fact that it was all made by a single person adds another layer of appreciation. I love the building and modelling. It’s simple and has a nostalgic feel to it but it feels extremely alive. The UI and UI animations are absolutely insane. Everything about it is extremely satisfying and keeps that simple but alive feeling to it. I also appreciate all of the very minor details such as the difficulty rating, the kings idle animation, the old walking and jumping sounds, the music change when you open the shop and the back rooms that I won’t spoil how I found.
I can’t find anything to actually complain about so I’m just gonna be as picky as possible.
Add some more music, the same song over and over again can become annoying and cause players to leave
Not sure what this thing is at the start of the game, I know it can also be forest as I’ve seen it before. Maybe briefly explain what that is somewhere around the UI?
Show which players voted on what map. Maybe you can show their player icon around the map they voted for when they initially press the button to signal that they voted for this map.
If there’s any suggestion I have for you that you should actually take seriously, it’s to market this game on 3rd party platforms such as TikTok. As I’ve recently found out, sponsors and ads have become basically useless when it comes to initially launching your game. All it takes is 1 viral video and your game can blow up. Compared to sponsors and ads where you can put hundreds of dollars into them and may only peak at 100 active players. Also, email any YouTubers you can and ask them to play your game, they are the best form of advertising as they properly show off how to play the game and their viewers will be influenced to play the game. A single video that gets 100k views in one day can easily skyrocket your game to 300 active players.
I’m really excited to see this game release, I’ll definitely be following it’s development from now on!
those are modifiers! You’re right; i should add a label.
Thanks for reviewing!
You’re right. Dumping a bit of money on ads was not a good idea. I’ll definitely see what I can do — i’ve been struggling to get the game afloat since beta.
me and my friends were playing this for about an hour since it’s quite a good game. but on xbox, there is a small bug you might want to fix where it says on the “click anywhere to exit” menu after games, it doesn’t go away because there is no xbox button to get rid of it.
I plan on releasing this on the 18th of February. Any more feedback is very much appreciated! Just ran some ads and posted a few videos on media, definitely doing better than before. Thanks!
This project is probably one of the most amazing projects I’ve ever seen. It’s an extremely polished game that was made as your first project, and where most would not have the motivation to finish it, you just kept going until it was finished, and for that I applaud you.
Now as for the game, the UI’s are simply amazing. Lots of games neglect their interfaces, but it’s very clear just how much effort was put into them. The map, which might look simple at first glance, is actually extremely well made and it’s very clear what kind of theme the game is trying to go for. The gameplay is also just as incredible, each event is very well made and works to make a very fun experience, that combined with the many different maps and gamemodes that all play different, makes for a very enjoyable gameplay experience which never gets old.
This is perhaps one the best new games out there, and it’s only a matter of time until it gets popular. Also, this game surprisingly does NOT have many micro-transactions, and even then it’s not hard to grind to get any of the current chests in game. Anyways, all in all, this game is extremely amazing and one of the best games I have played in recent memory and I recommend anyone to give it a try even if it doesn’t seem like your cup of tea, simply because of how well polished and how fun it is to play, 11/10!!!
At first I was wondering what took 2 years… then I realized: 100 events, stunning building and one heck of a beath-taking interface that all go together so so well! Not to mention beautiful VFX of which I am very jealous considering how I was never that particularly good at them in regards to how important they are to setting the atmosphere of a game.
I sincerely hope that this project gives you the fame and revenue you deserve! Good luck with promoting it!
For both stylistic and functional reasons. R15 doesn’t look good in my game, and it has a ton of collision kinks. I’ve also found that it is easier to make animations
I also think the animations look better overall, a great example is the taunts in nicos nextbots. The characters are R6 but have some pretty sweet animations.
We’ve played this for at least an hour the past couple of days and it has been awesome fun. Congrats on a game that has great unpredictability, stunning lobby design, catchy music, spectacular particle effects. Whats not to love about this game. Thanks
Lab Experiment isn’t really a competitor — the games are different in a lot of ways. It’s been a humbling experience and I can’t say enough how insane it has been. Hope it could last as long as possible
Hey @dukzae I saw this and commented on this post in February I have been really enjoying the game since yesterday and I have been playing it for like 3-4 hours since it is extremely and overall fun.
Also, I think I found a bug I joined a 49 people server, and the news section wouldn’t load for some reason.
